This is an awesome version (imo) of Sounds of Silence (with due homage to Disturbed’s version)

Just finished watching this…if you’re any sort of Cold Chisel fan, you’ll enjoy it.

My Mum recommended this to me.
So…obviously I’m reluctant.

But…shall we talk about Cold Chisel?
Really?

I think I might regret this…but sure, let’s talk about one of the greatest Australian bands of all time…both live and on record.

(How did you like my opening salvo? :wink: )

Well…okay.
Let’s accept that they were the most important Australian band from ‘77 to ‘83.

And that their legacy lasted until ‘89.
As it should.

Can we then talk about how the lead singer then released the most commercial US country album Ever?
And the guitarist went straight to boring MOR for a couple of years before disappearing?

And the only one of any substance was Don Walker?

God damn i love a good music discussion…

Ssshhh

…he’s replying

Fair point

The fact that they are selling out concerts for their 50th anniversary tour seems to suggest that their legacy is ongoing!

Completely, and utterly, irrelevant when discussing Cold Chisel and their legacy

Ian Moss is still around…but seriously, what a poor argument…how many other well known band members faded into relative obscurity after the end of the band that helped make them famous??

Maybe you should follow your mum’s advice and watch the vid…you might learn something.

LMW loves Billy Joel, Elton John.
Let’s not gild the lily here.

Cold Chisel were an amazing band. But they’re not relevant now and haven’t been…as I said, with their ongoing legacy, which was deserved, since ‘89.

I would Love to say that this generation recognises that little piano intro, but they don’t.

I’m very happy to celebrate those seven years.
They’re pretty perfect.
What followed…wasn’t.
